Bitter Creek & Western Weekend

So I went down to Arroyo Grande, home of the Bitter Creek & Western, the finest 7.5" gauge railroad in California, in my opinion. On Sunday April 20, there was a fundraiser for the San Luis Obispo Railroad Museum, so I decided to take my new locomotive there to run for the event.

All went well even though there were problems with the new propane burner. Sunday afternoon I wound up putting the coal grates in the #1 and throwing black diamonds with a tablespoon. Man! that was tough... but I got through it and the engine ran fine.

Here are some pictures from the weekend.
